CHARLTON 0 LIVERPOOL FC 3



Good solid result, the first 20 minutes of this game were probably the best football Liverpool have played so far this season. The early goal seemed to give us great confidence and we were ripping Charlton to shreds and it was amazing that Kuyt did not add to his goal tally.
But back to that first goal....thank god we got rid of Djimi Traore, his high foot tackle on Pennant in the pen area was complete madness and he really should have been sent off it was so dangerous. For the first time today Pennant seems to have grown some balls and took some resposibility and was not afraid to go past a man and was very unlucky not to score so maybe there is some hope for him after all. Gonzalez on the other wing also seems to be settling in but he really should have done better near the end with a free header.
Bellamy deserves a mention because his all round play today was fantastic capped of by a brilliant finish to seal the game, and what can you say about Gerrards goal, only he could keep such a cool head with defenders all around him to place the ball in the far corner of the goal and just leave their goalkeeper watching on as a spectator only able to watch the great man do his magic.......a good days work!
